A group workshop with an introduction to the Sustainable Business
Leader Program and an overview of the Sustainability Assessment
Form (SAF)

A site visit to your company to review the SAF you have completed
3)
A workshop with your Green Team to help you create an Action Plan based on
our recommendations and priorities you select from the SAF
4)
Implementation and guidance to services and vendors
5)
Ongoing assistance to measure progress
6)
Program evaluation with a final report
On-Site

send an SBLP coordinator to your company and assess your current
business practices. Silver programs provide start-up guidance while Gold and
Platinum programs receive additional on-site implementation and
management support.
